Vector-borne diseases storymaps: a new tool for Food Safety professionals and Risk Managers

EFSA has launched 36 interactive storymaps that provide user-friendly information on vector-borne diseases – from their geographical spread, to the risk of introduction in the EU to prevention and control measures.

The storymaps have been developed as part of a scientific opinion that will support risk managers to prioritize control measures.

The tool that experts developed to carry out their risk assessments (Mintrisk) is publicly available and anybody can see the data and information used by the experts to reach their conclusions.
